“One language sets you in a corridor for life. Two languages open every door along the way.”
Frank Smith (psycholinguist)
Our vision refers to the opportunities that languages open for young people in their life and career choices.
A knowledge of languages other than your own is vital in finding resources and making contacts and languages can allow us to spend much of our career working abroad.
A knowledge of languages can also help you get ahead and have exciting opportunities in careers where you wouldn't necessarily expect a language to be key.
Having the ability to speak a second or third language transcends spoken dialogue and allows you to relate to different cultural groups in a personal manner.
